01D565 - Walter 6.50Mm Sst Drill Bit

The Ultimate Drill Bit for the Welding Shop

For welders and fabricators, a dull drill bit isn't just an annoyance—it's a work stopper. The Walter 6.50mm SST+ Drill Bit (SKU: 01D565) is built to keep your projects moving, regardless of the material you are up against. If you frequently work with stainless steel, you know it eats standard bits for breakfast. That is why Walter has enhanced this SST+ bit with a powerful cobalt blend. This addition gives the bit the thermal resilience needed to cut through hard metals without burning out, ensuring you get a clean, precise hole every time.

The design of this bit focuses on making your job easier. It features a unique "High Flow" flute geometry that pulls chips out of the hole rapidly. This is crucial when drilling deep or through thick plate, as it prevents the chips from packing in the flutes, which is a common cause of bit breakage and overheating. Additionally, the back tapered body design reduces the friction on the sides of the bit, allowing for smoother drilling action and less strain on your drill motor and your wrist.

One of the standout features is the bronze SST surface treatment. This isn't just a cosmetic finish; it is a functional coating that helps the bit shed heat and resist wear. Whether you are drilling out a broken bolt, prepping a piece of angle iron for mounting, or fabricating a custom stainless bracket, this bit holds its edge. It is versatile enough to handle everything from soft aluminum to mild steel and tough stainless alloys, making it a go-to tool for any metalworking toolbox.
